I had an ecu upgrade from hlm, in short it's awesome! It used to boost 10psi on the gauge but now goes straight over 15 mark and it's mint! You should feel it straight away. Before i bought it they...

My misses sister had the same thing on her focus 1.6, think it was a core plug leaking. Didn't cost much to get fixed

Will have to give hlm a ring they do sound good. Im surprised at the top mount it was something i was thinking about but from what you have said it's put me off.

If it's not the the above, it might be sucking in air somewhere, i had a fiesta 1.25 that used to hang in the rev range, and it was inlet manifold gasket and a split pipe on inlet manifold. Did it do...

Hi

Quite new on here so this is my car

Brought it a few months ago, it was one of them cars that was on the edge of going down hill really, it needed some tlc. It was so filthy inside and out !...

That's a good point, i agree most new school tuning is more expensive, and if the result is the same who cares !

Did the dip stick test and it's smoking, guess i need to do that first. Had a look on mvs seems a bit of a daunting job. Should it run better when this is done ?

Whats the pcv ? sorry for my ignorance

Thanks for all they suggestions guys, will have a check of thoughs pipes and give hlm a call. The car runs great at the min, will pop some pics up if I get chance. Is it all them small pipes I should...
